WHO AND MINISTRY OF AYUSH LAUNCH NEW MYOGA APP WITH FREE LEARNING, PRACTICE SESSION VIDEOS AND AUDIO

It has been well over a year of working in pajamas and baggy t-shirts, and of course, enduring stiff necks and aching shoulders. While many may already have invested in yoga mats and tried out a zillion yoga and workout apps, others might still be a little lost. However, as hard as finding the motivation, some amount of daily mobility and training is required, at least now more than ever.

So, on World Yoga Day 2021, the Ministry of Ayush has launched the WHO mYoga app that aims to educate users about yoga with the help of audio and video clips. This app has been launched in collaboration with the Ministry of Ayush and the World Health Organisation (WHO).

The app was announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the Yoga day Livestream. The app is currently available for Android users only and will soon be rolled out on iOS.

 

What is the WHO mYoga app?

The health-centric WHO mYoga app is now available for download on both Google Play StoreHowever, it is not yet available on the Apple App Store. It provides 10, 20, and 45 minutes of audio and video clips for learning and practicing different asanas. The app is free for all and allows users to download these videos, including steps for tadasana, shashakasana, bhujangasana, dharana & dhyana, among others.

As per the app, it focuses on helping users pursue a “physically active lifestyle through yoga practice.” It is available for users between 18-65 years of age.
